About us
We are LGBT Foundation. We believe in a fair and equal society where all lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans people can achieve their full potential. Our work started in 1975 and we’ve been changing the lives of LGBT people ever since. Over the last five decades we’ve provided information, services and support for LGBT people who’ve had nowhere else to turn. We’ve been at the forefront of the social and legal changes that mean LGBT people in the UK have more rights than ever before. Our work is as vital and urgent as ever. LGBT people still face persecution, discrimination and stark health inequalities. Through our services we reduce isolation amongst our communities, help people feel more confident and in control of their lives and enable people to flourish. Every year we serve 40,000 people - amplifying people’s voices, providing support and offering hope. We work in partnership with others to build strong, cohesive and influential LGBT communities and promote attitude change in society, reaching 600,00 people online each year. Together, we can secure a safe, healthy and equal future for all LGBT people. Until then, we’re here if you need us.

We're proud to support Fighting With Pride - LGBT+ Military Charity as they deliver an open letter to the Prime Minister calling for urgent action surrounding the financial compensation scheme for LGBT+ Veterans. The letter, signed by the Chief Executives of the UK’s largest LGBT and veterans charities calls for the Government to look again at the compensation to make sure that the long promised financial reparations bring justice to those who lost careers and pensions; were subjected to military police interrogations; prison; intimate per-sonal examinations and forcibly outed to friends and family during the ‘gay ban’ which existed until 2000. Read the letter in full and head to Fighting With Pride's website to find out more: https://lnkd.in/dc8m_ue
